Abstract
There is provided a controller configured to carry out at least one of first control and second control, in cases where the internal combustion engine is in a predetermined operating state in which the EGR valve is caused to be fully closed, the first control being that an amount of fuel to be injected into an intake passage is made smaller, and an amount of fuel to be injected into a cylinder is made larger, in the presence of the abnormality of the EGR valve being not fully closed than in the absence of the abnormality, and the second control being that a pressure of fuel to be injected into the cylinder is made higher in the presence of the abnormality of the EGR valve being not fully closed than in the absence of the abnormality.
Claims4
A control system for an internal combustion engine comprising:
- an in-passage fuel injection valve configured to inject fuel into an intake passage of the internal combustion engine;
- an in-cylinder fuel injection valve configured to inject fuel into a cylinder of said internal combustion engine;
- an EGR device that has an EGR passage connecting between an exhaust passage and the intake passage of said internal combustion engine, and an EGR valve for opening and closing the EGR passage;
- and
- a controller configured to carry out at least one of first control and second control, in cases where said internal combustion engine is in a predetermined operating state in which said EGR valve is caused to be fully closed when a rotation speed of said internal combustion engine is equal to or less than a predetermined rotation speed and when a load of said internal combustion engine is equal to or less than a predetermined load, said first control being that an amount of fuel to be injected from said in-passage fuel injection valve is made smaller, and an amount of fuel to be injected from said in-cylinder fuel injection valve is made larger, in the case where there is an abnormality in which said EGR valve is not fully closed, than in the case where there is no said abnormality, and said second control being that a pressure of fuel to be injected from said in-cylinder fuel injection valve is made higher, in the case where there is an abnormality in which said EGR valve is not fully closed, than in the case where there is no said abnormality.
